      The Israeli leadership needs to be brought to the ICC.

      These are unacceptable war crimes.

      We cannot support this.

      Israel should limit itself to combating Hamas, not committing war crimes. And they should definitely stop being opportunistic land thieves on the west bank.

      This is not self-defense.

    Has Hamas released the fuel they’ve been stockpiling yet? If not, they’re committing yet another atrocity against Palestinians.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    GENEVA, Oct 12 (Reuters) - The blockaded Gaza Strip still has some fuel to operate generators such as those in hospitals but it could run out in hours, a Red Cross official said on Thursday, saying it is too unsafe to move stored aid around the enclave.

    Israel has responded to Saturday’s deadly surprise attack by Hamas militants by putting Gaza, home to 2.3 million people, under total siege and launching by far the most powerful bombing campaign in the 75-year history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

    “Our understanding is that there is still fuel - but probably only for a few hours - to allow generators to work, including in hospitals,” Fabrizio Carboni, the International Committee of the Red Cross (IRCRC) regional director, told reporters.

    ICRC teams are pre-positioning staff and stocks in strategic hubs close to Gaza as part of its preparations, he added.

    Israel has said there will be no humanitarian exceptions to its siege until all its hostages seized by Hamas militants during the weekend attacks were freed.

    The ICRC, an impartial humanitarian body which visits prisoners of war and detainees and sometimes facilitates their release, said earlier it was in direct contact with both Hamas and Israeli officials about the hostages but declined to give details.
